laboratory capacity

Laboratory capacity refers to the maximum volume of work a laboratory can handle effectively at any given time. This includes the number of tests that can be performed, the availability of equipment, and the staff's ability to analyze and interpret results. Factors such as space, technology, personnel expertise, and workflow efficiency directly influence a lab's capacity. Understanding this capacity is crucial for ensuring timely results, optimizing resources, and maintaining quality standards in research, clinical testing, or quality control processes.
